Hi! We are Faza and Adil.
And, we rented a theater to show 3 Idiots!
This is probably the best Bollywood movie ever made. This is a story about… well, it sounds simple, following your dreams.
I still watch it at least once a year whenever I need to be inspired again. Even after rewatching it 30 times, it makes me laugh and cry (in a good way) every time. I think everyone who makes something can find some parts of it relatable.
Duration 3 hours. The lobby opens at 12:30 and we will depart on time at 1:00. Try not to be late!
The concession stand might still be open, not sure, but there’s no one to check bags or do anything you want to do.
Excited to meet you.
“3 Idiots” is a Hindi coming-of-age satirical comedy film released in 2009. The film tells the story of three engineering students Farhan Qureshi (played by Madhavan), Raju Rastogi (played by Sharman Joshi) and the eccentric Rancho (played by Aamir Khan) at an elite but highly competitive Indian university.
The story explores the intense social and parental pressure to follow a traditional career path, contrasting with Rancho’s philosophy of striving for excellence rather than rote learning.

Years after graduation, Farhan and Raju embark on a nostalgic road trip to find the mysteriously missing Rancho. Ultimately, the film is a heartwarming critique of a rigid education system, celebrating true friendship, passion, self-discovery, and the belief that true learning leads to success.
